Instead, on Twitter, she took Mughal art, and slapped some cheeky, subversive captions and made ‘Mughal Science Reactions’. Most of them depict women, and the narratives are of women in science and academia killin’ it in a way that reminds us of other bold artistic initiatives, like Inedible India.

Be it women chilling, cornering a dude who had one or no women speakers at his conference, shouting “say it to my face, buster-” to those who say women aren’t made for physics, or women Deans standing up against creepiness and patronising behaviour of male subordinates, Upulie challenges power quotients in her little utopia, that are in turn strangely empowering to all of us. Funny what traditional art can be deployed for; hopefully, fresh and quirky narratives that affirm women’s place in science lead to reflection, and a more women-friendly scientific community.
